-#### Primary use cases include:
-* For servers/**computer labs located in remote schools**, which could be slowly syncing with a central server over a cell/satellite network or via USB keys.
-* In **correctional facilities** and other environments where providing educational materials is of value, but users cannot be given general internet access.
-* **Mobile school "vans"**, which transport a server and multiple laptops/tablets between a number of schools (or orphanages, community centers, etc) in remote communities on a rotating basis, and syncing up with a central database (to download new content and upload analytics) when in an area with internet connectivity.
+KA Lite is maintained by [Learning Equality](https://learningequality.org/), a small nonprofit startup based in San Diego.

 How do I change KA Lite's content folder?
 -----------------------------------------
 
-If you want to change your installation's content folder from the default (say, to point to a shared folder across installations), here are the steps you need to do:
-
-#. If it doesn't already exist, create a file named local_settings.py in the ka-lite/kalite folder (the one containing settings.py)
-#. Add the line ``CONTENT_ROOT="[full path to your videos directory]"``, making SURE to include an OS-specific slash at the end (see examples) and encapsulate it in quotes.
-    **For example, on Windows:** ``CONTENT_ROOT="C:\\videos_location\\"``
-
-    **For example, on Linux:** ``CONTENT_ROOT="/home/me/videos_location/"``
-#. Restart your server. If you are unsure on how to do this, please see :ref:`restarting-your-server`.

 I would like to download the videos for KA Lite via BitTorrent, is this possible?
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-We have made the full set of KA videos (in the format needed by KA Lite) available via `BitTorrent Sync (btsync)`_ (note that this is different from BitTorrent; btsync allows us to add new videos or fix problems without issuing a whole new torrent file and then having seeders split between the old and new torrent files) Here are the steps to set this up:
-
-* Download and install BitTorrent Sync
-* Run btsync. On some platforms, this will bring up a graphical interface. On Linux, you will need to load http://127.0.0.1:8888/ to get the interface.
-* Click the "Enter a key or link" button, and enter  ::

-
-* Then select the "content" folder inside your KA Lite installation as the "location" (unless you want the videos going somewhere else).
-* Allow the videos to sync in there from your peers! It may take a while for now, as we don't yet have many seeders on it. On that note -- please help seed by keeping it running even after you've got all the videos , if you have the bandwidth to spare! This to will make it easier for others to download the content as well.
-* Please note that these are resized videos. All in all, this will take around 23GB of space.
-

-
-Once you have the videos, you need to tell KA Lite where to find them by following the instructions in the :doc:`user guide </usermanual/userman_main>` for your version.

+Yes! Please see the instructions for ":ref:`bulk-video-downloads`".
 
 Do I need the internet to run KA Lite?
 --------------------------------------
 
 No. The only time you need an internet connection is for the initial download of the content (either to the target device, or to a USB stick that can then be carried or mailed). After installation, you can serve the content from a local server or use it directly on the server device without an internet connection.
 
-Is KA Lite involved in getting devices into the hands of students, families, and communities?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Currently, KA Lite does not distribute any devices. We are working with partner organizations who do directly distribute devices to local students and communities, and KA Lite is open to any organization who would like to help in this regard. If your organization wants to help KA Lite distribute devices, you can contact us at [email protected].
